Meanwhile, and this is a bit 27 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: of a worry for the markets this morning. I'll just 28 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 3: give you an update on them shortly. But Trump has 29 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 3: come out and said what Lutnik said at the weekend. 30 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 3: So the Chinese made smartphones and other electronics being exempt 31 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 3: from tariffs, he's now saying they are simply moving into 32 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 3: a different levy bucket. European stock markets bounced on Monday 33 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 3: morning after the official announcement that some electronic products would 34 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 3: escape levies up to one hundred and forty five percent 35 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: in China. China has called on Trump to completely cancel 36 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 3: the tariff regime and return to quote the right path 37 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 3: of mutual respect. 38 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 4: We want to make our chips and so we conductors 39 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 4: and other things in our country. And I will tell 40 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 4: you another one is pharmaceutic those drugs and pharma suit 41 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 4: of bos. We want to make our drugs in this country, 42 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 4: and by placing a tariff on the companies that are 43 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 4: not in this country, they're going to move into our 44 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 4: country and we're going to have our drugs made in 45 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 4: the United States. 46 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 3: And an all female crew including pop star Katie Perry, 47 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 3: have landed back on Earth after traveling to space on 48 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 3: Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin rocket. Flight lasted eleven minutes reached 49 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: a height of about one hundred kilometers above Earth. They 50 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 3: were only up there for three minutes. Katie Perry chose 51 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 3: to sing. 52 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 7: I've covered that song in the past, and obviously, like 53 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 7: my higher self is always steering the ship, because I 54 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 7: had no clue that one day I would decide to 55 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 7: sing a little bit of that in space. 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: But I think that it's not about me. 57 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 8: It's not about singing my songs. 58 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 7: It's about a collective energy in there. It's about us, 59 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 7: It's about making space for future women. 60 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 3: Oh God, Louis Armstrong, what a wonderful world. That's the 61 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 3: song she sang in space. 62 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: Get ahead of the Headlines on early edition with Ryan 63 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: Bridge and one roof Make Your Property Search Simple News 64 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: Talk z'd be. 65 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: I'm even sure you can say they went well. Then 66 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: technically they went to space. They went to the Carmen Line, 67 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: which is the internationally recognized boundary of space, and floated 68 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 3: weightlessly for three minutes. Would you say you've been to space? 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: I guess you have. If you're weightless, you've been to space. 70 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,239 Speaker 3: Apparently when they were up there, one passenger could be 71 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 3: heard saying, oh my goodness. Another one could be heard saying, 72 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 3: I love you, Jeff Bezos. Presumably that would have been 73 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 3: his fiance, because his fiance, Laurence Sanchez was up there 74 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 3: with them. Anyway, good news this morning. Forty three applications 75 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 3: in two weeks for the Golden Investment Scheme VISA not bad, 76 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 3: not bad. That's basically really wealthy people wanting to move here, 77 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 3: which is good. The last one, this was the one 78 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: the Labor government reduced. They had one hundred applications in 79 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 3: two and a half years. So to get forty three 80 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: applications in a couple of weeks, you'd have to say, 81 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 3: is pretty good. You have to put to get this 82 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 3: five million dollars down and spend a week here every 83 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 3: year for the first three years, and then basically you've 84 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 3: got your residency and you must invest that money directly 85 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 3: into New Zealand companies. This is good because people with 86 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: money generally spend it, and generally this is good for everybody. 87 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: Some immigrant immigration agents already reckon, we could get five 88 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 3: or six hundred applications annually. But the foreign buyer band 89 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 3: they reckon is becoming a problem. And this is where Winston. 90 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,679 Speaker 3: I mean, they've got a few things to talk about 91 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 3: Winston and Luxeon, don't they, But this is where he 92 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 3: needs to come in and basically get on board. Last 93 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 3: time I asked Nikola Willis about this, she said, there 94 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 3: are leader to leader talks between Winston and Luxon. There 95 00:04:54,279 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: are talks going on about potentially bringing back moving the 96 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 3: foreign buyer band, but taking the minimum from two million 97 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 3: up to five million dollars. So you're talking your coastal 98 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: mansions and your you know, your stone manors near Queenstown. 99 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 3: So the sooner that cabinet gets on and agrees to that, 100 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 3: the bet at Winston just needs to have a chat 101 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: with his boss, basically, and he is the boss, by 102 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 3: the way, despite what it might have sounded like yesterday, 103 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw that press conference. I'll 104 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 3: tell you more about that a little later on. Coming 105 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 3: up next, we're going to talk to Grant Webster. He's 106 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 3: the chief executive at Tourism Holdings. We've spoken to him before. 107 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 3: Is now the right time to be spending thirteen and 108 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: a half million dollars encouraging international visitors coming to New Zealand, 109 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 3: particularly we're given the precarious state of the global economy. 110 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 3: Are people looking to travel right now or are they 111 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 3: hunkering down to eleven after five? 112 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: That's next News and Views you trust to start your 113 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 2: day is Billy Edition with Ryan Bridge and One Room 114 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: Make your Property Search Simple? Can you's talk said? 115 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 3: Be good morning, It is five fourteens have been all 116 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 3: over the place this morning. This after the tech tariff 117 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 3: back down. I guess you the back down to the 118 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 3: back down, the reversal of the backdown. So the S 119 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 3: and P five hundred was up and early trading was 120 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 3: up one and a half a one point two percent. 121 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 3: Nasdaq was up that was at one point three. Dal 122 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 3: Jones was up point eight. Anyway, they've all come back 123 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 3: after Trump confirmed what Lutnik said at the weekend, which 124 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: is basically this is this reprieve is only going to 125 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 3: be temporary, and those particular you know, the cell phones, 126 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 3: the Apple iPhones, all these things are just going to 127 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 3: be put into a different levy basket. So's it's all over. 128 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: The show doesn't know if it's Arthur and Martha. About 129 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: half an hour ago when I checked the SMP was 130 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 3: point three, Nasdak was flat, so that was from a 131 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 3: high of two to flat, and the dal Jones point 132 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 3: one just gone quarter past five z B. Now the 133 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 3: government's coughing up thirteen and a half million dollars for 134 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: a new global marketing campaign to attract tourists to New Zealand. 135 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 3: This comes at the number of international visitors dropped two 136 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 3: percent in February compared with last year, though that was 137 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 3: largely to do with the timing of the Chinese New Year. 138 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 3: We're still only at eighty five percent of pre COVID overall. 139 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: Chief Executive Tourism Holdings Grant Websters with me, Hi Grant. 140 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 9: Good morning, welcome back to the morning. 141 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 3: Thank you good to be here. So is now a 142 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: good time to be spending coin on advertising for international 143 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: tourism direcon. 144 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 9: Yes, I do. Obviously I'm somewhat biased, but it's a 145 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 9: very competitive market out there, and often in New Zealand 146 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 9: we think people just come, you know, because we're a 147 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 9: great country, which we are, but we're well less than 148 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 9: one percent of world tourism, so you know, we have 149 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 9: to compete. 150 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 3: Did you see a boost from the campaign that they 151 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: launched in Australia. You know that everyone must Go campaign 152 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 3: that everyone made fun of. Did it work as you 153 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: have you seen any evidence of it working. 154 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 9: Look, there has been some commentary in the market that 155 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 9: some people have it's a very difficult time year on 156 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 9: year comparisons because East is obviously so late relative to 157 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 9: last year. There's no major events in winter, so it's 158 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 9: quite hard to get a direct comparison out of Australia 159 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 9: for US at that time. It's not a big market 160 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 9: for US. We turn domestic at that time, so not noticeable. 161 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 9: But there has been some positive commentary in the industry. 162 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 3: How is domestic going? 163 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 9: Oh, look, it's okay, it's okay. It's not something to 164 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 9: write home about. But we're not in the doldrums about it. 165 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 9: It's okay. 166 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 3: What markets do you reckon we should be targeting because 167 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 3: they're talking China, they're talking Australia in the US, India, Germany, 168 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 3: South Korea, India less so, but as an emerging market 169 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: in South Korea. 170 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 9: I think that feels really good. Actually, the tourists in 171 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 9: New Zealand's get the information on forward bookings, they get 172 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 9: the information on who's got the most active considerers for 173 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 9: New Zealand. So they're targeting where the fish are. So 174 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 9: I think that's the right thing to do. They feel 175 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 9: like the right markets. 176 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 3: How worried are you, Grant about the slowdown, you know, 177 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: the global general global slowdown that will inevitably come from 178 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 3: these tariffs. 179 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 9: Yeah. Look, I think the volatility and uncertainty is I know, 180 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 9: those of words everybody's using, but no, look that it 181 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 9: is concerning on a global basis. You know, people put 182 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 9: their hands in their pockets very quickly. We know that. 183 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 9: We certainly see and we've talked about this that Europeans 184 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 9: going into the US because we've obviously got business up 185 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 9: there that's really dropped off. Will that balance out with 186 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 9: domestic in the US. I don't know. So yeah, we 187 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 9: watch and wait and see. Definitely. In the past we've 188 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 9: seen things recover quite quickly when there's been a bit 189 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 9: of a pause. But we'll see. You have to see 190 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 9: what happens this time. 191 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 3: All right, Grant, Hey, take care, best of luck, Thanks 192 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: for coming on the program.

There's actually one 197 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 3: down the road from my house and they are clearing 198 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 3: the land at the moment on a lot of these places. 199 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 3: What are they going to do with it? Next? 200 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: We'll find out, Ryan Bridge on Nafili edition where one 201 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: roof make your property search simple. 202 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 9: Uth talg Zibby. 203 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 3: It is twenty after five twenty news talk zaib are 204 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 3: just too Russia for a second. So obviously they're back 205 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 3: to well they never stopped, but absolutely hammering Ukraine, just 206 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 3: lobbing everything they can at it, basically while they can. 207 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: And Zelensky has said to Trump, come and visit, Please 208 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 3: come and have a look at what they are doing. 209 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: And at the same time as you've got that going on, 210 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 3: you've got Russia planning for a spring offensive if they're 211 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 3: not showing no signs of going anywhere or backing down. 212 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: And at the same time that all that is happening, 213 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 3: you've got this Reuter's report that says there are business leaders, 214 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 3: business executives in the EU who are worry, reried, about 215 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 3: gas supply, which is fair because they had the gas 216 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: crisis twenty two to twenty three. Remember that prices shot 217 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 3: up through the sky and the US plugged the gap. 218 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 3: Now you've got Trump using energy as part of a 219 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 3: bargaining as a bargaining chip in his tower of trade war. 220 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 3: So these guys in Europe and their head officers are 221 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 3: sitting around talking, well, do we start importing from Putin again? 222 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 3: Do we start getting gas from gas prompt? So whatever 223 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 3: outcome Trump was hoping for, surely that is not one 224 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 3: that you want. Twenty one after five News Talk z'd 225 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 3: be Augan Council's voted on the future of land destroyed 226 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 3: by floods. By the end of this year, more than 227 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: twelve hundred high risk homes will have been purchased at 228 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: a cost of three hundred and fifty two million dollars, 229 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: and a large amount of the land will be retained 230 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 3: for flood resilience. Mace wards with Auckland Council's recovery off 231 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 3: is with me now, Mace, Good. 232 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 8: Morning, Good morning, Ryan. 233 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 3: Quite a bit of land. Where is it all in 234 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: clumps or is it individual properties randomly spread out? What 235 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: are we talking? 236 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 8: It's a mix, I guess. So there are some clusters 237 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 8: of properties that are in clumps of areas that were 238 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 8: really adversely affected during those twenty twenty three storms, and 239 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 8: then then those areas spread across the region where either 240 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 8: landslipe or flooding arequed. 241 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 3: Where does the money come from? Because it's quite a chunk. 242 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 8: That is a chunk, and just for those twelve hundred properties, 243 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 8: it's over one point two billion dollars between the Crown 244 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 8: and the council funding. So it's a significant investment in 245 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 8: future resilience for Auckland and ensuring people are removed from 246 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 8: that intolerable risk to life that was so critical during 247 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 8: that time. So the money comes from the Crown and ratepayers, 248 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 8: so it's fifty to fifty funding split. 249 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: The thirty percent I've seen that you estimate twenty percent 250 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 3: of the land could actually be developed, so you could 251 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 3: end up with housing on some of this land. 252 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 8: That's correct. I mean, this really matters, So it will 253 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,319 Speaker 8: take time, but our current current modeling shows that with 254 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 8: some further investment in flood resilience for example, so this 255 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 8: is the making space for water program in a different 256 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 8: development form than the homes that were there in a 257 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 8: brown field sense. You know, we think there is around 258 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 8: thirty percent that could be redeveloped for safe residential use. 259 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 3: What happens to the rest of it? Does it just 260 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 3: sit there? And you know as a flood zone. 261 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 8: There's a number of options. So yes, some of it 262 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 8: will be used for the Blue Green Network and making 263 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 8: space for water, so it will be actually daylighting streams 264 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 8: to make more space for water, and that those areas 265 00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 8: will be immenity for use by people when it's not flooding. 266 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 8: So think about long linear parks downstream sides where there's 267 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 8: walking paths and the like, but when it floods, that 268 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 8: space is there and people will be will be safe. 269 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 8: And other other locations, it's possible in those sporadic locations 270 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 8: to potentially neighbors to buy that land for a non 271 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 8: residential use, increase the size of their garden. 272 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 3: That time, backyard, appreciate that.

He just can't win either way. 291 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 3: There's coalition land mines to step on. Here's the thing. 292 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 3: Winston first made these comments last Thursday. He said Luxon 293 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 3: should have called him or whatever the words were, so 294 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: he should have just picked up the phone, called them 295 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 3: straight away, squared it off, have it out, whatever, move on. Instead, 296 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 3: you're trying to announce a tourism boost at SkyCity on Monday, 297 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 3: and it's still dragging out. Some journalists in the press 298 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 3: conference yesterday even asked Luxeon where the head apologized to 299 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: Winston Peters. For goodness sakes, what an outrageous question. For 300 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: the record, Luxeon gave a speech basically saying he supports 301 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: free trade, big deal. We all do. Then he calls 302 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 3: a couple of world leaders he's met and tells them 303 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 3: he likes free trade, big deal. Guess what, that's fine 304 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 3: because he's the Prime Minister. That's actually his job. He 305 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 3: is the boss. Winston's just feeling a bit left out 306 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 3: over and tong or obviously, so he's running his mouth off. 307 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 3: What does Luxon do. Does he just have a private 308 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 3: call and hope that Winston calms down, or does he 309 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 3: take a harder line in public with Winston call him out, 310 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 3: tell us he's only the Foreign Minister, not the Prime 311 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 3: Minister and he should stay in his lane. Whatever the strategy, 312 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 3: he needs to figure it out quick smart. As I 313 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 3: wrote about it the weekend, Winston's only just getting started. 314 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 3: There's an election to fight next year and he'll be 315 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 3: unshackled from the deputy PM rains next month.

Isn't this 339 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 3: exactly the same thing that the Prime Minister has done 340 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 3: probably less severe even all Luxeon did was give a speech. 341 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 3: Now he's sacked one of our most high profile, high 342 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 3: profile diplomats without even speaking to the boss. So yeah, 343 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 3: Garrett good point. Well made twenty three minutes away. 344 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: From six News Talk said be good to. 345 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 3: Donald to my own Australia shortly right now. Callum Proctor 346 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 3: is with us in Toneed and Cullen. Good morning, morning Ryan. 347 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 3: A bit of excitement down there after the discovery of 348 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 3: a threatened fish and you've got a rear penguin sighting 349 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 3: to boot. 350 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 11: Yeah, much excitement the fish. For a start, it's named 351 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 11: after one of the most notorious book characters, The Gollumn 352 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 11: galaxious fish has been found at several sites in the 353 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 11: Waimatuku Stream. This is near in the Cargo, of course, 354 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 11: named after Gollum from Lord of the Rings. This is 355 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 11: due to its large eyes and preference for swampy habitat. 356 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 11: So Doc says the fish are unique to South and 357 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 11: so these findings reinforced the need to protect their homes. 358 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 11: And penguin was spotted on Otago Peninsula yesterday, so the 359 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 11: King Penguin's being cited less than ten times in New Zealand. 360 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 3: Very cool. How's your weather. 361 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 11: It's fine today, but cloud develops towards this evening the 362 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 11: High thirteenth. 363 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 3: Claire Schubert is in christge clear, good morning, good morning, 364 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 3: welcome back, thank you, good to be back. Now your 365 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 3: mayor has done a tour of the new stadium. Great 366 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 3: it's nearing completion. But how do you get there? 367 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 12: Well, that's the real question, Ryan. Look, construction of the 368 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 12: new stadiums in its final year. Now the roof cladding 369 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,959 Speaker 12: is underway. The grass for the field is already been 370 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 12: grown off site. This is a six hundred and eighty 371 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 12: three million dollar project due to open a year from now. 372 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 12: But the mayor yesterday admitted look public transports an issue 373 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 12: for the city. He says he'd like to see a 374 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 12: contingent of free buses running when a major event is 375 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 12: on and that we need to look at the likes 376 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 12: of Melbourne because they know how to move people around. 377 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 13: For the Formula one, he. 378 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 12: Says he doesn't know yet what the first event will be, 379 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 12: with that decision lying in the hands of Venues Autotahi. 380 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 3: It's pretty cool. I saw the footage of it yesterday. 381 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 3: Very exciting for christ Church. How's your weather today? 382 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 12: Som rain turning to showers. They will clear by this afternoon. 383 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 12: Southwesterlies and a. 384 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: High of twelve matt. 385 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 3: Thank you, Claire. Max Toller is in Wellington, Max, good morning, 386 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 3: Good morning. Now there's a sentiment for change, unsurprising in 387 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 3: the capital. This is the mayoral race. I'm assuming yeah, correct. 388 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:54,479 Speaker 5: Our reporter Ethan Minara has got his hands on some 389 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 5: polling done by Curia of one thousand Welling Tony in 390 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 5: so a healthy sample size asking who they'd vote for 391 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 5: for mayor. Unfortunately Andrew Little not included. It's all signs 392 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 5: point to him running, but this done obviously he hasn't 393 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 5: declared yet. Still pretty disastrous for the incumbent. Eighteen percent 394 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 5: support for Torri Fano, to compare that thirty percent for 395 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 5: current counselor Ray Chung. Carl Tiefenbaker. He's a local businessman 396 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 5: who's run a few times before here and there. He's 397 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 5: lost every time, but seems to be a viable competitor 398 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 5: as well this time around. And you know, drawing on 399 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 5: this theme, the business world not happy. We had a 400 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 5: local tech boss come in on Wellington Mornings yesterday. He 401 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 5: said he wouldn't set up business in the capital today 402 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 5: if he had the chance. Again, we have the wrong imperatives. 403 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 5: At a furniture store closing on Newtown this week, the 404 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 5: act its owner blames the cycle lane on Adelaide Road. 405 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 5: Nothing against cycle lanes or cyclists in general, but business 406 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 5: permanently dropped thirty percent the day those car parks disappeared 407 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 5: in that's May. 408 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think talent repellent was the word he used 409 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 3: to describe it. 410 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 5: That's exactly right. 411 00:21:58,040 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Hey, how's your with him? X? 412 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 5: Some early dresser claring to find fifteen the High Central. 413 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 3: Thank you very much.

Yeah, I forgot what I 425 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 3: remember it. As soon as I wake up, I went, oh, 426 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 3: that's right.

And I can tell you 484 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 7: if you want some entertainment, go to the comments section 485 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,879 Speaker 7: on SoundCloud underneath that release of that song, and you 486 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 7: will see the most extraordinary amount of comments and most 487 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 7: of them are rather negative. I'm just gonna say that. 488 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 7: So yes, the song has had about fourteen thousand streams 489 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 7: so far. The Coalition says, you know, it's a serious 490 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 7: message in a new format. The album cover of the 491 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 7: song uses Anthony Albaniz's face photo shopped onto the iPhone 492 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 7: shrug emoji that's been used to promote the song as 493 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 7: they say as well.

He hadn't even listened 495 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 7: to it himself, which was extraordinary, But the Prime Minister 496 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 7: was asked about it and he just said, you know what, 497 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 7: there's lots of good Australian music around. He says the 498 00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 7: Coalition's tactics are beyond his comprehension, and the PMC well, 499 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 7: how about voters just check out his spotify this because 500 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 7: he's not planning on a disc track himself, and he said, 501 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 7: I'll leave it to others to see why the Coalition 502 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,719 Speaker 7: consistently borrow cultures and ideas and policies from other places. 503 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 7: So interesting words from the PM in regard to that, 504 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 7: goodness man, interesting disc track. 505 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: I heard this a video coming too, Like we've got 506 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 3: the audio, the threatening to release the videos, so we'll 507 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 3: look forward to that. Donna Hey tell us about this 508 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 3: Aussie company being fined for greenwashing. 509 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 7: Yes, on a much more serious note, we've heard from 510 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 7: the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission that took Klawox Australia 511 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 7: to the Federal Court over misleading claims made between June 512 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 7: twenty twenty one and July twenty twenty three. This company 513 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 7: is behind glad garbage bags. It's been fined eight point 514 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 7: two five million dollars. 515 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 2: What did it do? 516 00:26:54,960 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 7: Falsely claimed that the products were made from recycled ocean plastics, 517 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 7: but in fact these bags were actually made from recycled 518 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 7: plastic that had been collected from communities in Indonesia. But 519 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 7: these communities were up to fifty k's from the shoreline 520 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 7: and Clorox was found to have sold about two point 521 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 7: two million bags during this defending period and guess what, 522 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 7: they were more expensive than its standard range. So in 523 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 7: addition to the eight point twenty five million dollar fine, 524 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 7: also an apology has been ordered and the company now 525 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 7: says yes it does respect the outcome. Essentially, it was 526 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 7: alleged that they were greenwashing and now they face that 527 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 7: a massive fine. 528 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 3: All right, Donna, thank you for the update. Great to 529 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 3: have you on again, Dona Tomorrow, our Australia correspondent. It 530 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 3: is twelve to six news Talk said be now a 531 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 3: new six education curriculums being put out for consultation by 532 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 3: the government. Children from year four will learn about consent, 533 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 3: gender stereotypes and inclusion, while high school aged kids will 534 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 3: learn about sexual violence and menstruals cycles and STIs. Carl 535 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 3: Bruton's the president at Auckland Primary Principles Association with me 536 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 3: this morning. Carl, Good morning, Good morning, Ryan. Good to 537 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 3: have you on. So anything out of the ordinary in this. 538 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 6: To be honest, I haven't had a look at the 539 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 6: actual content of the of the proposed curriculum and detail, 540 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 6: but based on what you're saying, that's largely why we're 541 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 6: doing a consultation because where some of those things are 542 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 6: pitched doesn't quite sit with what we would expect in 543 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 6: terms of age and stage of our little people. 544 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 3: What's inappropriate at what age do you think? 545 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 6: Well, if you flip it a little bit, the puvotal 546 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 6: change is really the focus, particularly for those primary years, 547 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 6: because we've seen particularly things like periods are happening earlier 548 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 6: and earlier. We would see that that would be more 549 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 6: beneficial to be talking about menstrual cycles in those younger 550 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 6: years and just being quite upfront about that and including 551 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 6: the boys in those conversations as well. So it just 552 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 6: eliminates all the all the giggling and carrying on and 553 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 6: just makes us. 554 00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 9: And normalizes it a lot more. 555 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,479 Speaker 6: At those early year is when you're starting to talk 556 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,719 Speaker 6: about things like consent and if you even were going 557 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 6: to entertain things like sexual violence and might have you. 558 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 6: That's certainly something for those older years. You wouldn't expect 559 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 6: the year five student to be having those conversations. 560 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 3: What about the big, the controversial elephant in the room 561 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,719 Speaker 3: that you know, kicks of the protests off and all 562 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 3: that stuff, is the gender and the puberty blockers. Is 563 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 3: that a primary school conversation? 564 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, you're right, it is the contentious one. We don't know, 565 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,239 Speaker 6: and that's that's the trouble. We are just teachers, right, 566 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 6: we're educators. We're not really sure in terms of psychologically 567 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 6: and the psychology behind things like gender identity where it 568 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 6: does best fit and is it something that a school 569 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 6: teacher should be trying to teach and grapple with. I mean, 570 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 6: we certainly go down the road as being respectful and inclusive, 571 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 6: and people are all prone and entitled to their opinions 572 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 6: and views, and we should support anyone who thinks whatever 573 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 6: they think, and you know, we just should be good 574 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 6: to eat one another. We don't sort of get into 575 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 6: the detail, but so it does beg the question is 576 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 6: there something for schools to grapple with and that's why 577 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 6: again this is this consultation should hopefully bring some clarity. 578 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 3: Good point, Kyle, appreciate your time. Kyle Brillton, Orkrom Primary 579 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 3: Principals Association President. It is nine minutes away from six 580 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 3: News TALKSBB. Just by the bye, that particular issue isn't 581 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 3: really it basically isn't addressed in these new guidelines, the 582 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 3: puberty blockers and the gender identity and all that stuff. 583 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 3: It's not really it's it mentions gender, It mentions gender 584 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 3: being accepting of people, but it doesn't go into you know, 585 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 3: am I this or am I that? And do I 586 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 3: need drugs at all at any level from what I 587 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 3: can see of school, primary or secondary. Nine minutes away 588 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 3: from six you're on News Talk SBB. We'll get to 589 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: the HOSK next. 590 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 1: The first word on the News of the Day Early 591 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge and One Room to make Your 592 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: Property Search Symbol News Talks B. 593 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 3: Good morning, as six to six News TALKSB. We didn't 594 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 3: have to look at the website of the group that 595 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 3: TAMMITHA Paul, you know, with the Paul who wants to 596 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 3: defund the police. She is putting out the feelers for 597 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 3: donations to the group People Against the Prisons, and I 598 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 3: went on their website this morning because you can follow 599 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 3: the link from her social media. Anyway, I didn't donate, 600 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,959 Speaker 3: but I did have a read of the website. One 601 00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 3: of the things that they argue is unjust, it's dignified, 602 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 3: and is a risk to the safety of our prisoners 603 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 3: is the fact that the prison guards go round every 604 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 3: night and check every two hours. They check on each 605 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 3: prisoner and they shine a light shine to talk into 606 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 3: their eyes. Now, they say this is impinging on the 607 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: prisoner's dignity and their well being. The reason they do 608 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,239 Speaker 3: this is one obviously for security, but two to make 609 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 3: sure that no one is harming themselves. So you can't 610 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 3: He just can't win, can you. You just cannot win. 611 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: It is five minutes away from six News Talk ZEBB 612 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: and Mike is here this morning.

It's 624 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 10: evolving as we rolling. It's a rolling thunder and they're 625 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 10: scraping barnacles off the boat and so by six o'clock 626 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 10: apparently all the So do this.
